A much appreciated Thank You

You may know that my dear friend sarah held a raffle for me (and generously donated half of her sales in April) to help with expenses towards a vehicle after Inga was tragically totaled. That extraordinary woman's vision and many people's participation raised $678 for me. I have never been so touched by so many people - and all of them people that only know of me through the internet - mostly through Ravelry. What an amazing community! Thank you to everyone. I do have a "new" 2004 Honda Odyssey. In addition to the car payment I have higher insurance rates, so that money is coming in handy right about now. Not to mention a court date next month where I'm hoping the charges will be dropped so the insurance rates don't go up even more.

The short and sweet of it is: thank you - very, very much! It was an unexpected blessing I will remember.

Ravelry baby!

I got my invite! I'm doing a little happy dance in my chair here. What are other people doing at 12:41 in the am. Sleeping? Oh. They musn't have gotten their ravelry invites today! Posting projects right now. Mostly FO's because it's less depressing. Looking back, I've knitted my ass off. Took some stash photos yesterday because I checked my status and it said there were like 127 people ahead of me.

My Paradise Fibers order arrived today. I'll post some pictures tomorrow. The only exciting things (picture wise) are a new spindle, and some merino to spin. Yea.

Back to ravelry.
